Emily Brontë

by Agnes Mary Frances Robinson ...

There are, perhaps, few tests of excellence so sure as the popular verdict on a work of art a hundred years after its accomplishment. So much time must be allowed for the swing and rebound of taste, for the despoiling of tawdry splendours and to permit the work of art itself to form a public capable of appreciating it. Such marvellous fragments reach us of Elizabethan praises; and we cannot help ... Read more

Stories By English Authors: Italy (Selected by Scribners)

by Anthony Trollope, Agnes Mary Frances Robinson, William Edward Norris, James Payn, Laurence Oliphant ...

When I lived in the country, — which was a long time ago, — our nearest neighbours were the Luscombes. They were very great personages in the country indeed, and the family were greatly “respected”; though not, so far as I could discern, for any particular reason, except from their having been there for several generations. People are supposed to improve, like wine, from keeping— even if they are ... Read more
